DIR. Hamilton says That the United
States Has Notning to Rear from
Cholera.
Washington, d. O., Sept. 24-Dr.
Hamilton, surgeon-general OF the marine
hospital service, said last night that the
arrival OF a single ship at New York, in
fected With the Asiatic cholera, need
not give occasion for alarm. In his
Judgment the health officers at New
York would be able to handle the cases at
the quarantine without difficulty. The
sick will. of course, he said, be properly
isolated and we'll removed to o safe place,
their clothing and baggage fnmigated
tho ship disinfeoted thoroughly and her
cargo removed and dlsinfected. Tbs
history of past epIdemics had shown
that 1t was only by repeated arrivals of
cholera,infected vessels that the disease
gained q foothold in this country. 1t
was not Indigenous, and our climate
aud soil was not favorable to Its pro-
pagation; but, like all contagious dis
cases., may be imported il not guarded
against, As an illustration of this fact
that it had only broken out after the ar
rival of several cholera-laden vessels, DIR.
Hamilton cited the great epidemic OF
1882. He believed the disease was
brought here from Canada. A ship
bound for Quebec from Ireland arrived
at Crosse Isle quarantine in April with
l70 emigrants, and having had twenty
nine deaths from cholera during the
voyage. Bat it was not until after the
third cholera infected ship arrived in
June that the disease broke cat on shore /.
IL then spread through Canada and New
York state. Distinction vas not prac-
ticed st this time, neither we're a pre-
cautions taken. In November, 1848. che
ship New York" arrived at New York
from Havre, with IL cases of
cholera on board. Seven deaths oc-
Cured on the voyage. The number of
cases increased to 20 the next day, and
finally reached So cases and 90 deaths.
But winter set iii quite severely, and the
disease entirely subsidized.
New York. Sept, 24-President Bay.es,
OF the health board, is not at all alarmed
over the outbreak Of cholera upon the
Aiesia. 1t is too late IN the season, he
says, to worry. The department is in
good shape to deal with the disease, In
the event OF an epidemic the board
would have $685. 600 at their command.

to meet the epidemic of 1866. The
soourge had, visited New York in 1913,
1S49, and in 1854'55. The last visitation
aided in the discovery of the true ma
ture OF the disease, and dread gave way
to o calmer view. Nevertheless, the
news in November, 1866, OF the arrival
OF a cholera ship from Havre caused con.
sternation. Strict quarintine work kept
the disease out, but the following April
brought half q dozen steamships with
cholera stricken passengers. The Viz.

lowed by the England, with $50 deaths
out of 1,200 passengers. The latter ar

the first case occurred in New York. In
that year the disease killed 1912 per
sons in this city, and was the last vista.

BELFAST, Sept. 6, 1887.
To the Editor of the Argus:
My attention has this moment been called
to several items in the Argus stating that il
was said in an interview between my brother
and the Supervising Architect of the Treas.
ury Department that compact had existed
between me and the late architect, Mr.. Bell,
by which my brother was to have an increase
of salary in return for my vote in Congress.
know nothing OF any conversation which
may have occurred between the present Su
pervisiug Architect and my brother, except
that the latter in a letter to me denies having
said anything from which the reported state
ment could be justly inferred.
|, however, deem it my duty to Mr.. Bell
as we'll as to myself to say that from what
ever source this absurd statement may have
originated, it is without the slightest shadow
of foundation in truth.
do not know nor did | ever hear of any
subject before Congress in which Mr.. Bell
expressed an interest, unless he may have
done so in regard to the appropriation for the
architects office.
But that matter goes to the committee on
appropriations and not to any committee of
which have ever been a member; and
have never interfered with it, nor attempted
to do 80, either before the committee on appro-
priatons or in Congress, or elsewh here, but
have voted, as l think every other member
of the House has done, for such sums as the
appro priations committee has reported and
recommended to the House. Indeed, | do
not remember that there has been any con-
troversy or even division upon that item in
the appropriation bills in the House during
my service there And it is true not only
that no conversation or communication or
understanding ever existed between me and
Mr.. Bell relative to any appropriation or
vote in Congress with even the remotesi
reference to any advantage to my brother or
any one else but happened to be one OF the IN
attractive men who has never been improperly
approached by any one during my public
service. Lobbyists, whether from the de
partments or elsewhere, have never come to
to me with propositions. | have not known
them
One of the items referred to says threaten
ingly that ''the authorities of the treasury
propose to bring the matter to the attention
of Congress at the coming session. 1.-The
authorities of the treasury" can do nothing
" hich will please me more. 1t may perhap,
not be improper for me to state in this con
nection that my brother WAS not appointed
through my influence. but that he received
his place long before entered Congress, ant
that while would gladly do any proper thing
| for his benefit his retention in office has been
hurged not so much by me as by many of hi:
old comrades in arms-among whom so urg
| ing his retention are some of the most promi
nent and influential democrats in Maine.

A Big Mistake.

The moalting season, or the season when
hens she'd their feathers, will soon be at an
end. The process is one thst in certain re-
| spects debilitates and prevents hens from lay
ing. rhe reason of this is that the growing
of new feathers requires all the nitrogen and
phoephates contained in the food, and there is
| none left to form the egg. curious fact
about the hen. and one that illustrates the
foregoing statement, is this, if a hens leg be
broken during the laying season, she will lay
her eggs without shells until the break is
| mended. The reason for this must be that
all the lime contained in the food is required
! to unite the broken bone; there is therefore,
! none for the formation of egg shells. The
formation of new feathers does not require
any corbonaceous or fat producing food, con-
sequently we'll fed hens get very fat during
the mouting. Many farmers snd poultry
rsisers, not understanding all about these
things, kill of their old hens because they
think they have stopped laying and are tat
This is a great mistake because if the proper
material be furnished them with their food to
supply the increased demand for nitrogen
and ,phosphates before mentioned, the OLD
hens will be through shedding feathers much
sooner, and will begin laying on the approach
of cold weather, and they will continue 10
lay vigorously all winter. while the young
hens, may not begin to lay until much later
in the season. Very many people have
learned from experience that Sheridans
Condition Powder. mixed once daily with
their food, will supply the extra material
needed to strengthen and invigorste their
hens. enabling them to grow new plumage
quickly and commence laying early. Those
who commence now to use Sheridan's Pow
der, will find their young pullets will com
mence to lay at from four to six months old,
and will Law continuously through the winter.
The Farmers Poultry Raising Guide, pub
lished by l. S. johnson & Co., at % Custom

vast amount of information on this subject.

because the Grand Army. an organization
of the veterans of the civil war, has OF
late shown a disposition to defend itsell
from the injustices heaped upon it oy the
administration, have determined to COM
pei the Grand Army to pass under pic
lures OF Pres. Cleveland who has become
SO distasteful to them, for the simple pur'
pose of compelling the organization, in
some way or other, to offer insult to the
Chief Executive of the Nation and thus
subject themselves to disgrace.
Had the organization known the kind
of hospitality which it seems the people Of
St. Louis are capable of, in season, and
also their want of respect for the pre-
servers of the Nation. it doubtless would
have designated some other place for its
re- union. But it's too late to
change plans now. The Grand
Army must make the
best of the situation, and that seems to lie
in disappointing the citizens of st. Louis
which can be effected by doing the oppo-
site to what they intend the organization
shall do; to wholly ignore the portraits OF
President Cleveland, no matter how many
or how large; to show in no way, either
by speech or act, any annoyance that may
be ielt. Such course will serve both as
a silent rebuke to the people of that city
and will also be lesson to them in good
manners; it may cause them to respect
the organization more than they do now.

Hardin County, H., is the scene of a
bloody ieud which rivals in its CHASTITY de
tails the Toliver- Logan feud OF Kentucky.
The citizens of the county are banded to-
gether on one side or on the other and are
bound by oaths to exterminate the OPP
posing party. Assassination and brutal
murder are frequent and there is no Sc
curity even for women and children
Those who do not wish to join either fac
ton are forced to move away and strang
ers are warned out of town. Houses are
deserted and the beligerents dwell in the
woods and bushes. The State will be
called upon to suppress the outlawry.
The coupler question appears likely to
be decided before very long by the adop-
ton of vertical. plane hook couplers,
which do their work automatically. The
balloting provided by the Master Car
Builders Association on this subject is
now in progress and will be over by the end
of October The association itself voted
by two-thirds majority in favor of the
vertical. plane principle. A committee
representing $1,000 miles of roads has
decided on its adoption, and the link and
pin coupler will be before long thing OF
the past with the other man-killing and
manning forms of coupling appliances.
